Tuesday, July 22, evening, Asama Yamanaka.

The Maori leader walked out, and Ran, Sonoko, and Conan watched Yamazaki and Midako harvest the ingredients for dinner along the way.

After the rain, there are a lot of mushrooms, a number of wild vegetables, five snakes, ten bird eggs, a pair of pheasants, and a rabbit.

"That's pretty much it. Mei Daiko said.

Yuan Zi pointed to the distance, "Na, that, am I mistaken?" ”

Looking at the bears passing by in the distance, Lan said in surprise, "How come?"

"Don't worry, man is also a big game for bears. "There's plenty of food here, so they won't come and attack us." ”

"That's good. Maori, Lan, and Yuanzi patted their chests.

"Now the question is, uncle, what kind of road are you leading? "Bears don't usually appear on the edge of the mountain. ”

"Ah," said the garden, looking at Maori, "you're not going to take us to the mountains, are you?"

"Daddy?" Ran looked at Maori.

"I followed the map, how could I be wrong. Maori shows up the map.

Conan's triangular eyes straightened at a glance, "The map is reversed." ”

"......" included Maori, and the group was speechless.

"Ah," cried the garden, "what now, we're not going to camp here, are we?"

"Then you have to prepare the ingredients for supper. Mei Daiko said.

"I mean, bath, bath. "I've been walking all afternoon, and I'm covered in sweat." ”

"Just use the stream. Mei Daizi smiled, "I guess I won't be able to get out tonight." ”

"Don't. Lan shouted.

"Make do with it, it's summer. Maori said.

"Shut up!" Lan roared with the garden.

"Well, let's see if there are any mountain huts, in that case, at least a hot shower. Yamazaki laughed.

After that, Midaiko climbed up the tree to take a look and noticed a glimmer of light.

When it was completely dark, the Maori group finally reached the light, and it was actually a house.

"It doesn't matter who built the villa in a place like this. "In short, I am saved." ”

"You say, it can't be a youkai in the mountains. Lan said scaredly.

"That's just right. Mei Daiko smiled.

Maori said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, be polite when you see someone later." ”

"Yes. The crowd answered.

However, it was a short old man who answered the door, and he directly told them to get out.

At this time, Akashi Kanto appeared, "Hey, you are the ...... of the day"

"Yes, yes, that ......"

Maori couldn't remember his name for a while, so he jumped over directly, "Well, we're going the wrong way, can you give us a call." ”

"We don't have a phone at home, you can go. The old man said.

"Dad. Akashi Kanto persuaded.

"Hmph. The old man went straight away, "I'll go back." ”

"Please come in, everyone," Akashi said with a smile, and then introduced, "It's my father, who hasn't been in a good mood lately because of his dental treatment. ”

"Excuse me. The crowd said.

"Can you borrow a place?" said Mei Daiko turned around, showing off the hunt hanging from her backpack.

"So much prey," Akashi laughed, "there's firewood and camping stoves in the warehouse over there." ”

Yamazaki and Midaiko go to release their prey, and Mori, Conan, Ran, and Sonoko enter the room with Akashi Kanto. ……

Warehouse.

Finding that there was a generator set, Yamazaki smiled bitterly: "Bring your own power supply, I'm afraid the phone line has not been answered, I can't live here at night." ”

"Then I'll have to find some ingredients for supper. Mei Daiko said.

"It depends. Yamazaki said. ……

In the room.

I didn't see Akashi's wife, but I saw a portrait of a young woman.

Seeing that everyone noticed, Akashi said gloomily: "My wife passed away due to illness, and the tennis court I went to today is where we met. ”

"No, it won't be today, right?" Lan was a little scared.

"It can't be such a coincidence. "The garden was also a little scared.

"It's exactly today. Akashi said.

"Ah, it seems that the day of her death is also today. Conan coughed.

"Ahh

"What is there to be afraid of. Maori said in a trembling voice.

"I—let's go. Lan said scaredly.

"Can you borrow a phone and use it?" Maori asked in a trembling voice.

"I'm sorry, I really don't have a phone here, and my mobile phone has no signal at all," Akashi said with a wry smile, "I have to run to the village below the mountain to make a call, and now because of the rain, the car can't drive on the mountain road, and I'm afraid it will take an hour or two to walk." ”

"Isn't it?" complained to the garden, "how did you think of living in a place like this?" ”

"If he doesn't live in this place, won't we have to sleep in the open?" said Mei Daizi angrily, "What are you calling nonsense?" ”

Because of the cry just now, Yamazaki and Midaiko came in to take a look.

"Nothing, nothing. Lan and Yuanzi laughed dryly.

Akashi sighed, "My father thought that radio waves would produce radiation, so I had to live in a place like this that was rarely visited. ”

"Then you've worked really hard. Maori said.

"It's fine. Akashi Kuanto smiled bitterly, and then changed the topic, "By the way, you haven't had dinner yet, because of the rain, my friend who was going to come today didn't come, and I made too much curry, so if you don't mind, help solve some of it." ”

"Then it's disrespectful. Maori laughed. ……

Dinner with vegetables, bird's eggs, mountain vegetable tempura, mushroom soup, grilled snake segments, grilled pheasant and grilled rabbit all belong to Mei Daiko.

The internal organs of the pheasant and rabbit were stir-fried, and Conan was added with vegetables, and his tonsils were a little swollen, and Lan didn't let him eat spicy.

Yamazaki and Akashi Kanto, Midaiko and Ran are busy with dinner in the kitchen and warehouse respectively, and Conan, Sonoko, and Mori hurry up to take a shower. ……

Kitchen.

While he was busy making dinner, Yamazaki felt danger emanating from the temporary partner next to him, what was going on?

No, no, his dinner was for his friends, so it couldn't be for his friends, right?

In addition, there is no way that this guy knows that we are coming, is it an indiscriminate killing of tourists in the mountains?

And what is the purpose? For the sake of the cash of the travelers in the mountains? No kidding, who would bring a lot of cash to the mountains?

While Akashi Kanto wasn't paying attention, Yamazaki picked out a little curry, and he didn't feel that there was a problem, so he put it in his mouth and tasted it, except for a little spicy, there was no strange taste.

When dinner was ready, Yamazaki offered to help bring them to the table, and took the opportunity to try them one by one and found that there were no problems.

Strange, Yamazaki was a little confused.

"Everyone, please use it first, and I'll be back shortly. Akashi Hiroto loaded two trays with a serving of curry rice and some small portions of dishes, ready to go upstairs to his father.

Wait, his target wouldn't be his father, would he? And his friend, who is now us, is his alibi?

Thinking of this, Yamazaki took the first step to take a tray, "Mr. Akashi, there are so many things, let me help you get a copy." ”

Akashi Kuanto was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Thank you, but don't worry, you must be hungry, please use it first, I can do it myself." ”

Maori smiled: "Then you're welcome." ”

"Huh?" Lan stared at Maori, eating at someone else's house, and starting without waiting for the master, it was too rude.

Maori was embarrassed to put down his chopsticks.

"It's okay, let's go. Yamazaki said, and left first.

Kanto Akashi caught up with Yamazaki, "Sir, my father is a little nervous, so let me come." ”

"It's fine. Yamazaki said, "Let's hurry up, your father is sure to be waiting for the meal." ”

Akashi Kanto couldn't, so he could only let Yamazaki follow and take Yamazaki to see his father. ……

Mr. Akashi's room.

Seeing Akashi's Kuanren, Mr. Akashi said, "What time is it? Dinner has only been delivered now, and the movement is too slow." ”

"Because some dishes were added. Akashi said, "This is the mountain catch, bird eggs, mountain vegetable tempura, fresh mushroom soup, and grilled snake segments brought by the guests. ”

Mr. Akashi said, "I don't eat mushroom soup, who knows if it's poisonous." ”

"Sir, it's certainly not poisonous. Yamazaki said.

"Really? Mr. Akashi said.

"Dad. Akashi said helplessly.

"Don't you say it's not poisonous?" said Mr. Akashi angrily, "So what does it matter if you take a sip?"

Yamazaki scooped a spoonful of mushroom soup with a spoon, and without putting it in his mouth, he poured it into his mouth, then used chopsticks to pick up a few slices of mushrooms and threw them in his mouth.

Swallowing the contents of his mouth, Yamazaki said, "Look, it's not poisonous. ”

"Ha, you're a good kid. Mr. Akashi said with a smile.

Akashi said, "Okay, Dad, you eat slowly here, and I'll entertain the guests." ”

"Go, go. Mr. Akashi took a bite of curry rice, "Yes, this is really spicy." ”……

Out of the room, Akashi said to Yamazaki, "I'm really sorry, sir. ”

Sensing that there was no sense of danger coming from Akashi Kanto, Yamazaki smiled, "It's me who should say I'm sorry for ruining your plan." ”

Akashi's face changed, and he smiled forcefully, "What plan, what do you say?"

"Let's go down for dinner first, we'll talk later." Yamazaki laughed. ……

warehouse

After dinner, Yamazaki went to the warehouse to sort out the things for supper and asked Akashi Kanto to accompany him.

"Mr. Akashi, I'll be blunt," Yamazaki asked, "You invited your friends to your house today, are you going to kill your father by using them as an alibi?"

Akashi Kanto's face changed, "I don't know what you're talking about, I'll go back first." ”

"In that case, Mr. Akashi," Yamazaki said, "I just want to remind you that no matter what wrong he does, he will always be your father. ”

Akashi stopped and muttered, "He's not my father. ”

"What?" Yamazaki didn't hear clearly.

Akashi Kanto turned around and walked back, and said sharply, "You know what, he is not my father at all, he is a devil at all. ”

"If you want to say anything, I'd like to hear it. Yamazaki said.

"I ......" Akashi reacted, realizing that he had just been impulsive and had already slipped his mouth.

"Don't worry, I won't tell the police. "And what you may not know is that Uncle Maori's full name is Kogoro Maori." ”

"Mori Kogoro?" Akashi was taken aback, "The detective?"

"That's right. Yamazaki smiled, "Because of the kind of legend, if it is not necessary, the uncle will not say the name." ”

"Wherever you go, there are events. Akashi said, "That's right. ”

"So, if you want to take advantage of us, you're probably not going to succeed. Yamazaki said.

"It seems that there is no hope for revenge. Akashi sat down weakly, and then gloomily told the past.

"He is not my father, just my adoptive father, he and my adoptive mother brought me home from the welfare home, and gave me a warm home for a child who didn't know what home was, I am very grateful to them, and I did my best to be filial to them. ”

"After my mother died, I got married, and my wife and I lived with him to take care of my father. ”

"One day, my father heard on TV that radio waves produce radiation, so he got into a fight, and we moved here. ”

"In the process of moving, my wife had a miscarriage, and I found out that my wife was pregnant, and she didn't want to tell me, she wanted to surprise me when the baby was formed. ”

Speaking of this, Akashi Kanto couldn't help but burst into tears, choked up and continued.

"At that time, I was working as a physical education teacher at a university in the county, and after I moved here, I only came back for a day or two a week because of the long distance. ”

"My father has always been taken care of by my wife. ”

"However, I didn't know that my wife was already weak because of the miscarriage, and since she moved here, the mountains were damp and her health has not been good, and she often has colds and fevers. ”

"It's my fault, I haven't been paying attention to it. ”

Speaking of this, Akashi Kuanren burst into tears.

"It was also July today, and it was raining, and my father asked my wife to go to the supermarket down the hill to help him buy something. ”

"My wife went, walked in the rain for more than two hours down the mountain road, and finally on the way back, fell on the side of the road, and was drenched in the rain and blown by the wind, and gradually fainted. ”

"It was the anniversary of our first acquaintance, and I rushed back from school to surprise my wife, but I found her fainting on the side of the road, and hurriedly carried her down the mountain, but it was still too late. ”

Speaking of this, Akashi couldn't stop crying.

A few minutes later, Kanto Akashi wiped away his tears and continued to speak hatefully.

"I remember vividly, and I will never forget, the night my wife was buried, my father's self-talk to my mother's spirit card, and his smug laughter. ”

"Wife, I've finally broken it, next time I want to find a guy who can last longer, like Kuanren, a toy that is so durable. ”

Speaking of this, Akashi Kuanto clenched his fists, gritted his teeth viciously and said: "I must take revenge, even if you stop me, even if there is Maori Kogoro, I will take revenge." ”

"I have no objection to your revenge. Yamazaki said.

"Huh?" Akashi was stunned.

"I'm just against you killing him. Yamazaki said.

"Huh?" Akashi was puzzled.

"He can use you as a toy, you can use him as a toy, and if you kill him, you won't have anything to play. Yamazaki said, "This rare place is your cage, so why not his?" As he spoke, he patted Akashi on the shoulder and walked out. ……

Out of the warehouse, Yamazaki scratched his head and decided to go down the mountain to make a phone call, where the problem father and son lived, it was better to leave early, let them toss slowly.

Anyway, Mr. Akashi's life should be saved, otherwise even if Mr. Akashi is arrested now, he will be able to come out soon, and when the time comes, he will be able to kill Mr. Akashi directly, and he will also be able to take Mr. Akashi's life.

As for what Mr. Akashi will do to Mr. Akashi, it depends on Mr. Akashi's own luck, from Mr. Akashi's miscarriage to Mr. Akashi's wife, to the death of Mr. Akashi's wife, all this cannot be turned back.

What cause to plant, what effect to reap, perhaps, from the moment Mr. Akashi and his wife adopted Mr. Akashi, all this was doomed, and it was destined to be a bad fate. ……

Yamazaki went back to the room to inform Mori and the others that he was going to go down the mountain to call, and Maida listened and followed, but Mori and the others wanted to go and no one followed, the speed was too slow. ……
